People play slots strictly for the entertainment value, right? No, they play to win one of those massive slot jackpots! I mean sure, slots can be hugely entertaining, but the thrill of the game lies in the chance of hitting a big payday. This has us wondering just how much a player could win. So we went looking for the ten all-time biggest wins on slot machines ever recorded! And we’ve listed them below:
Our 10th place lucky winner hit a jackpot at the Las Vegas Rampart Casino for $14.3 million back in 2013. That big win came on the popular Megabucks. Our 9th place entry comes in not far from Vegas, as a player at the M Resort and Casino in Henderson won $17.3 million. Ironically, the win was also on Megabucks and won using free credits!
Next up, an online jackpot from Europe! A player at Betway won $20.8 million playing the Mega Moolah online slot. And in 7th place, we’re back in Vegas down on Fremont Street. A player at the Cannery Casino won $21.1 in 2005, after winning $4.6 million at the Mirage Casino back in 1989. Both wins came on Megabucks!
Then, in 6th place there is the $21.3 million at Caesars Palace in 1999. Can you guess what machine paid out this big win? Yup, Megabucks seems to be paying a lot of these slot jackpots! And in 2002, a lucky woman at Bally’s Casino was able to hit another Megabucks win for $22.6 million!
Our 4th place winner on this list of impressive slot jackpots was able to take home over $23 million on just a 25 cent bet while playing online the Mega Fortune game from his home in Finland. And the 3rd biggest win ever came from the land based Palace Station Casino in Las Vegas, where a retired woman won $27.6 million back on that Megabucks game in 1998!
That leads us to the very biggest slot jackpots, and in 2nd place we find the lesser known Desert Inn in Vegas, where another Megabucks winner took home over $35 million! But the biggest win of all time came at the Excalibur Casino in Las Vegas, once again on Megabucks, when one lucky man beat the odds to win $39.7 million!
So the moral of this story? If you want to win huge slot jackpots, stay in Vegas and play the Megabucks!
